Detailed Black Water Extraction (Category 3) Methods for Superior
Toilet Overflow Water Removal
Toilet water that has spread across a floor is treated as contaminated. It is extracted, and floors, baseboards and lower walls are disinfected.
Sewage Backup Water Extraction
Sewage backups need extraction because the water carries bacteria and spreads contamination into flooring and walls the longer it sits.
Sewage Damage Report for Insurance
The report shows where the sewage came from, what it reached and what was removed and why, which gives the adjuster a clear picture of the claim.
Storm Sewer Flood Water Removal
Water from an overloaded storm sewer or street flooding carries soil, debris and contaminants. It is extracted and the affected areas are cleaned.
Contaminated Carpet Water Extraction
Water is extracted from contaminated carpet first to reduce weight and spread, then the carpet and pad are removed and the subfloor disinfected.

Areas that stay damp and smell after a flood still hold contaminated water in floors or walls.
Visible Sewage in Crawlspace
